DISCOVER ESTONIA

Steeped in tradition with a modern, vibrant energy, Estonia is a country of contradictions. From the juxtaposition of heritage and hedonism in its capital Tallinn to the slow-paced magic of its more than 1,500 islands, this nation — poised between Scandinavia and Central Europe — holds so many surprises.

TRADITIONAL ESTONIAN FOOD

sprats

One traditional Estonian dish that stands out is sprats, an especially popular snack that can be found throughout the country. Sprats are small, salty fish that have been canned and marinated in oil or tomato sauce - they’re very flavorful!

rosolje

Estonian dish rosolje is a quintessential summer food in the Baltic region. The traditional dish is a delicious combination of vegetables, potatoes and herring that packs a flavourful punch.
While mostly associated with Estonia, rosolje is also a popular dish in other parts of Northern Europe like Finland, Latvia, and Lithuania.

mulgipuder

Mulgipuder, or "Mulgi porridge," is a popular Estonian dish that combines rye and oats with various spices and seasonings. It's typically served with bacon, onions, and potatoes for a hearty meal, though variations may include other ingredients such as dried fruits or nuts.

hautatud kala

Estonia has a rich culinary heritage that dates back to the Middle Ages. One of their most beloved dishes is Hautatud Kala, which translates to “honeyed fish.” This dish is popular in both rural and urban areas throughout Estonia, and it features a variety of fresh fish caught from rivers or lakes that are then boiled in a blend of honey, herbs, and spices.

pikkpoiss

Estonian dish Pikkpoiss is a traditional national dish. It dates back centuries and has been enjoyed by generations of Estonians ever since. The main ingredients of pikkpoiss are potatoes, pork, onions, dill and other spices that make it a truly unique experience.

kama

Kama is a delicious dessert that has been enjoyed by Estonians for centuries. This traditional dessert is made from a mixture of ground grains such as barley, oats, rye and wheat. The mixture is then cooked with milk or cream and sweetened with honey or sugar. The result is a rich and creamy pudding-like dish that can be served either warm or cold with various toppings.
